First Time Post

I have been working on my 1974 F100 for over 2 years. I have silently gathered information from all on this site. She is officially ready for summer as of this weekend. So I thought I would share what she looks like.

List of upgrades:
302/AOD swap
DJM lowering kit
255/70R15 Cooper Cobras on Turbine rims
Dual exhaust with Flowmasters
Refreshed interior: new carpet, seat recovered, Lokar shifter and Retro Sound stereo

Thanks for all the help!!!!

Nice truck! Looks good in yellow.
Is that an Explorer engine? Does it move the truck nicely?

The motor and tranny are out of a 1993 F150. GT40 heads are from a 1996 Explorer.
